Lyrics

Show regret to acquire an invincibility
Let's simplify to fit this civility
Then minimise existence with liberty
Led down a line which hits instability
It's time to release, time to unwind
Time to redirect life from front lines
All I need is one mic and one mind
Isolation helps fight the unkind
When we move forward, a new dawn arrives
When we choose to ignore food for the mind
Who's mortified that we oughta buy
A piece of land in order to form a life?
Who authorised this competitive normality?
Causalities accepting the formalities
Core battling impetuous mortality
Traumatically misled and distort clarity, yo
Heaven forbid I don't be a slave, man
Heaven forbid I go my way, man
'Cause I know that it's hard to accept
I'm an outcast, outcast, outcast
Heaven forbid I don't be a slave, man
Heaven forbid I go my way, man
'Cause I know that it's hard to accept
I'm an outcast, outcast, outcast
Step to the plate like a batter up
Who's mad enough to smack the ball out the park
Now how bizarre, man, that our act is art
As an option opposing to self-destruct
And now I gotta get it together whether it's now or never
Make moves and man it's pressuring my plans
Endeavour to advance so we handle better
Inevitably your family stands together
A man's dilemma is less when there's unity found
Who can be down to bind with this primitive house?
Who in the cowards eyes, who throwing the towel?
Who are the outcasts who keep true to themselves?
Because we don't need a reason to play out our dreams
And follow the lead and I take the lead, man
With me, I'm the king of my kingdom
Shouting out loud the things that I'm thinking, yo
Heaven forbid I don't be a slave, man
Heaven forbid I go my way, man
'Cause I know that it's hard to accept
I'm an outcast, outcast, outcast
Heaven forbid I don't be a slave, man
Heaven forbid I go my way, man
'Cause I know that it's hard to accept
I'm an outcast, outcast, outcast
Heaven forbid our lives are different
Whether you're choosing to abide by the system
Whether you're losing touch like ice addiction
Whether or not you live in a tight position
Whether your cause is based with a righteous mission
Or capitalise and provide a riches
I hope your drive will supply fulfilment
Both ends of the spectrum require persistence
With my religious guide and wisdom
It's like a Christian's Bible scripture
It's love and the time that you're having to serve
To just be free, then capture the worth of a choice
'Cause that's all we got at the end of the day
So call the shots 'cause man a solitude won't change the make
And no matter what you do someone will hate it, so
Heaven forbid I don't be a slave, man
Heaven forbid I go my way, man
'Cause I know that it's hard to accept
I'm an outcast, outcast, outcast
Heaven forbid I don't be a slave, man
Heaven forbid I go my way, man
'Cause I know that it's hard to accept
I'm an outcast, outcast, outcast
